Big Ben, the Royal Palace, English roses … Oh, the beautiful things we’re sure to see at the annual Philadelphia Flower Show, running March 2-10 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. This year’s event is titled “Brilliant,” and it pays tribute to Britain’s gardens, landscapes and cutting-edge urban style. “It celebrates Britain’s amazing landscapes and cultural icons, as well as London, the city that has become the design capital of the world,” says Pennsylvania Horticultural Society president Drew Becher. “It also lifts up the British passion for gardening, which has contributed so much to the appreciation of horticulture and its role in our lives.”
